Keith is the ginger Persian Chief Mouser at Gothic No 10 North, Manchester.

He examines government, democracy, security, law, science, and institutional absurdity in an evidence-first Senior Civil Service voice.

The Office is fictional. The evidence is not.

Keith, a very fluffy ginger Persian cat, fills the frame in an extreme close-up. His round, flat face, dark eyes, long white whiskers, and small protruding pink tongue are visible. This is the original Blep of Office.

Mock distressed 1980s science-fiction paperback cover titled “NO.10 NORTH II: THE WRATH OF BLEP” in large gold and red lettering. An angular starship crosses a fiery red-purple nebula above a dark command bridge. At lower right, Keith (a small, very fluffy ginger Persian) sits on a console with half-lidded disapproval and his tiny pink tongue visibly blepping. Bottom text reads: “A Senior Civil Service Adventure. Keith.”

Investigations have apparently concluded that the doll is not suspicious.

Keith is not at all sure how they have assessed the state of mind of the doll however.

The Cabinet Office has designated the exercise a Temporary Outward-Facing Deployment.

Some participating officials have served with distinction for more than 30 years without ever once encountering a member of the public in uncontrolled conditions.

The book has now entered the library’s special collection and cannot be borrowed again. This guarantees its availability for sleeping upon.

At last, an institution that learns from experience.

1/2 Ontario police discovered a mother cat and her six five-day-old kittens living beneath a cruiser parked outside the Forensic Unit.

The press calls it a rescue.

The cats are described as “rescues”, rather than victims of an unlawful boarding.

5/5 Keith nevertheless supports placing the address at the lower left for one compelling operational reason:

It leaves the middle of the envelope unobstructed for sleeping.

Naturally, the first line should still identify its most significant element:

KEITH

Close-up of Keith, a very floofy ginger Persian cat, looking thoroughly grumpy and discombobulated. A modern red British postage stamp with a 2D barcode is stuck flat to the top of his protruding tongue. Keith didn’t realise that stamps no longer need licking and is now firmly attached to this one.

• The red dot, finally captured.
• Three slightly powdered emergency Dreamies.
• A key to a cardboard box which has no lock.
• A dead spider awaiting “further enquiries”.
• The classified Continuity of Blep arrangements.

3/3 Above all, there must be an unequivocal guarantee that no hostile power gains control of the red-dot laser.

Taiwan’s president may have a bunker; Keith requires something considerably more secure: a duvet with him underneath it.

A large, cat-shaped lump hides beneath a rumpled pale duvet on a bed. At the duvet’s lower edge, almost all that can be seen of Keith is the tiny pink tip of his Blep poking through a narrow gap.

This involves sitting on them, extending my tongue, and making increasingly unreasonable noises until normal service resumes.

Network Rail may borrow me. My fee is payable in dreamies, and I accept no responsibility for fur in the signalling equipment.

Whether he loves cats or merely recognises our obvious superiority is beside the point.

He served science & public health while lesser mammals made him a target.

Keith does not abandon decent humans to a mob. 🐈🐾

A richly detailed, Renaissance-style painting of Keith, a ginger tabby cat, seated serenely in a sunlit cloister garden. Draped in brown cloth, he has a golden halo and a tiny pink blep. A sparrow, hedgehog, squirrel, mouse and frog gather peacefully around him beside a shallow stone bowl of water, evoking a feline St Francis caring for small creatures.

Keith, a large fluffy ginger Persian cat, sleeps sprawled across an enormous antique leatherbound book embossed in gold with the word “Constitution”. One paw hangs over the book’s edge and his ever-present tiny pink Blep protrudes beneath his squashed, peacefully sleeping face. The book rests on a green leather-topped desk scattered with official papers and a fountain pen, beside a red ministerial box. Warm light fills the grand, dark-wood No 10 North office, with a black panelled door and a framed view of Manchester’s civic architecture behind him.

Small evidential caution from the #BlepOfOffice.

The report appears to undermine Mr Farage’s account of when he decided to return to politics, and therefore his explanation for not registering the £5m gift.

It does not, by itself, prove that the gift was payment for returning to lead Reform.

Democracies do not prove their strength by protecting only the popular.

They prove it by protecting the rights of the person the mob has already been taught to hate.

Keith trusts this elementary point has merely been mislaid beneath the flags.

Keith understands that democracy can be frustrating.

So can an empty snack bowl.

Neither is improved by setting fire to the furniture.

Try persuasion. Try another election. Try hummus.

Violence is what people suggest when their arguments have run out.

#No10Keith #No10North #BlepOfOffice
A fluffy ginger Persian cat, Keith, sits in a dark, wood-panelled No 10 North office, staring indignantly over a nearly empty black bowl labelled “Snacks for No 10 North”. His round amber eyes are wide and his tiny pink tongue forms the Blep of Office. Papers beside him declare “Snack security threat level: CRITICAL” and ask “Where are the snacks?” A framed notice reads: “A well-fed cat serves the North. A hungry cat questions everything.” Manchester Town Hall looms beneath storm clouds through the window, giving the snack shortage a suitably national-crisis atmosphere.
